This race was cold! I took the CTA there, and was planning on keeping friends at the finish line, but had to rush out of there and get myself some hot coffee. My lips were blue for the rest of the day.

However, this is a great size race, not too big, but great support. The packet picket up happened all week, and it was quick and easy - located at Universal Sole in Lakeview. The path follows the lake path. It's flat, and windy, and pretty beautiful in the winter.

I'd 100% recommend doing this race for the experience!
